SuMMeR 2011!

We had one seriously BUSY summer this year! We had lots of family come in town, which is always so fun and action packed, and we got to go on a bunch of fun little vacations- Moab, Bear Lake, Girls Camp (for me), Park City, Jackson Hole, and last but not least, Wallsburg! Why we did every road trip you can think of the summer I am super pregnant is beyond me, but I survived and we all had a great time at each place! Here are some of the highlights...

In June, the Howell's came to visit, which always brings so many fun activities and I love being able to hang out with my sis and her kids! Hazel and Sophie adore each other and it's so cute to see their little friendship grow!
We did a day at Liberty Park with Yoj, which is the kids'- and Yoj's- favorite summer activity:




And nothing says summer like a BBQ & s'more's at the Koplin's:






Our friends Eric and Maere invited us up to their family's cabin in Bear Lake with our other friends Sam and Amy. We got to just hang out and relax at the cabin and the lake, and all of our 6 kids had a blast together. We hardly saw them the entire time. Thanks you guys! It was such a fun getaway!








The Skidmore's came in town twice and we love when they're around! Hazel & Lucy and Matto & Drew are such cute friends. We got to have a sleepover at our house and go to Wallsburg with them while they were here too. Wallsburg blew their minds- riding horses, seeing lots of animals and riding the 4 wheeler and motorcycle. The kids were in heaven!
















Every year we go to Park City with my family and it's always one of our favorite trips of the summer! Lots of swimming, card games, and just relaxing. Our kids love, love, love to swim so they had a great week up there- and so did we!
